The newest installment in SNK's long-running 2D fighter, The King of Fighters XV was met with a warm reception from fans of the series. Like many of the games before it though, KoF XV is very hard for newcomers. It doesn't have as big of a player base as Tekken or Super Smash Bros, and thus newcomers will probably be facing players much better than them more frequen

Proper crosshair placement is very crucial in any FPS game, and it’s what most new players struggle with. Maintaining a random crosshair placement will lead to missed shots, and more often than not, you’ll lose the tr

Agency is a map that is set in a commercial penthouse at the top of a skyscraper building. Rescuing the hostages successfully is such a good feeling in Agency. Extraction takes place on the helipad where hostages are presumably airlifted away from the map. Of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive's new maps, Agency stands out for being one of the b

Tekken has been one of the most consistently popular fighting games in the genre. The 3D fighter features beautiful graphics and a huge roster of unique characters to choose from. Save for a few exceptions like Super Smash Bros , fighting games are often very hard for newcomers to come into. There is a ton of information to learn, and it can even be hard just choosing a charac

If, as rumors suggest, Valve goes ahead with franchising, changes need to be made to current models in order to ensure the game's success. Rather than have buy-ins, Valve should institute a format that is like most majors for the inaugural season and allow teams to compete against one another to earn a spot in the league. They could use the same tournaments and assign points to each, which would then help to determine who would move into the lea

Before the Berlin Major, CR4ZY's (formerly Valiance & Co) best accomplishments to date were their victory at United Masters League Season 1 and a 2nd place finish at DreamHack Open Tours 2019 . As a result, CR4ZY would first have to battle it out with established CS:GO teams like Big, Fnatic, Mousesports, North, and Optic, along with ten other teams, having to secure a top-eight spot in order to advance to the next stage of the major qualifier. From there, they would have to secure one of the top two spots at the Europe Minor Championship or face another stage of the qualif

Therefore, before redeploying, players should check the map for hexagons that are unoccupied and land there. Doing this will give them the best chance to collect weapons, money, and armor, which should give them the opportunity to get their team back on its feet. Luckily, in Danger Zone , it is quite easy to do this even after a team has died a few times collectively due to the abundance of resources that are on the

Like many difficult-to-learn shooters in the multiplayer market, Insurgency: Sandstorm plays very differently from the typical shooter. While not a true combat sim like Arma, Insurgency throws players into unique game modes with weapons that down foes in one to two shots.

With the sudden success of the Overwatch League and the decision by Activision to start one of their own with Call of Duty , rumors now indicate that Valve is thinking about starting a franchise league for Counter-Strike Global Offensive . We'll explore why this would be a very bad idea and discuss potential alternati

Managing the looting, complex gunplay, and punishing feelings of losing everything make Tarkov a true grind for newcomers. Its incredibly high TTK and lack of kill cams can make deaths feel impossible to learn from. Newcomers hoping to stick with the game will have to find a way to learn though, because Escape From Tarkov never holds the player's h
